As a DJ, I have great appreciation for a well executed mix. It takes great skill, taste and talent to create a satisfying mix that world listeners and dancers would want to revisit again. The good mix must have a track selection that tastes good mixed in a way that sounds good and delivered in a way that feels good. Now believe me when I say that working with global bass tunes can be challenging as the different sounds and styles can variate greatly. It does help to stick to a similar genre of music for overall consistency (something I often challenge if you’ve heard my recent mixes :). I’d to present to you three DJs that do an incredible job mixing it up! I think what really grabs me about these mixes as that they are club-ready, mixed for the dancefloors, releasing the explosive energy of the tunes from one drop to another.

Let’s jump right to it:

Србија представља (Serbia Presents):

Neki Stranac (one half of Shazalakazoo) just released a Transnational mix that will blow your heads off. It is so well put that I believe he deserves a title for it among the world heaviest global bass champions. This mix is incredible, it features a bunch of tracks we have written about plus a few exclusives from Neki. He writes that it is a promo mix for the upcoming SOUR MANGO tropical bass parties in Belgrade, Serbia. Yo, anyone planning a trip over there? I am now seriously considering a visit!! Here’s my recommendation: download it now! Neki, respect for this and good luck with the new club line, i dig the name.

38. josh wink – higher state of consciousness (dj apt one higher state of moombahton remix)

39. heartbreak – pilulas azuis e brancos

40. hyper crush & diplo – ayo (moombahtron loves you edit)

I am very happy to relay to you this mix by Government4000

Government4000 is Vladimir Popovic from Belgrade, Serbia. According to his Soundcloud page, he has been djing since 2000 in various clubs including the famous Belgrade Club Dolar. In 2001 he ran a radio project on SKC which became #1 underground radio station in the country [way to do it underground yo!]. He continued to be involved with the radio station as an organizer, dj, and music editor until the state [booo!] closed the station. He “realized” the ‘Brain Vacation’ stage at the EXIT festival which was declared as, “The Best Open Air Festival of the Year in Europe”. He currently run the Favela Blast Off Club night in Ljubljana, Slovenia with Tido DJ and Admiral Rah.

Here’s the latest smokin’ mix from him that already got recognized by Flore, Bumps and Hat&Hoodie. This is a real gem and I am bringing it to you here again, so that we have it in the almighty GenerationBass Archive (over 2500 posts!!).

I featured Yves Deligne a.k.a Handmade65 in the French do it global article and I am glad to have him back on site. He just posted a recording of his 2010/2011 NYE mix and it is so hot it’s smokin’. Man would I have loved to have been there for this one… I can imagine the champagne was flowing freely that night. Still in the buzz of the new year, here’s a set to set you on fire. Big respect for another amazing mix tape by one of my favorite global bass djs at the moment.

Hope you enjoy the music and that you share the excitement of the great talent this world of ours has to offer. Big respect to the musicians featured in these mixes and to all the global dancers out there, respect!
